Altan's wall

 The square house on the hill
Aligned to catch the last light line before night
It's grey and black walls point to an ancient austerity
To a will forgotten by humanity

The yellow dim lights flicker
radiating the appearance of gold on the concrete
The wall facing the valley below is broad and tall
A lizard grips into the small pores of the wall

The geometry of the cactus
Of the freshly cut conifers
Communicates something alien
Something dark descends quickly from dying red cloud

Shadow's darkness compounds
Something touches down from the sky
Something that spent a millenia escaping hell
Something that takes stock of the earth from Altan's wall
